A "bridge" is a networking term that refers to a piece of hardware that
connects two dissimilar networks and passes information from the computers on one network
to those on the other, and vice-versa. In an analogous way, the chipset must employ bus
bridges to connect together the different system bus types it controls. The most common of
these is the PCI-ISA bridge, which is used to connect together devices on these two
different buses.
